This is great. I’ve been imagining some cool ways that bands could combine real-time status updates (like Twitter) with the actual live show in the venue, and this pretty much nails the combination of the two on the head (though it’s via text updates, not twitter).

For a band that jams and is so focused on improvisation, this is such a cool way to take the improv to the next level and connect with fans. Good stuff guys.

By the way, I love the “cantina band” jam (around min. 2:05). Was that the song from the original Star Wars bar scene?
